This location, after hurricane Sandy, does not look the same.
See it here! http://www.longislandpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Fire-Island-3.jpg
From Fire Island, looking north to Bellport, Brookhaven Township, this is the site of the breach, where the ocean has washed through the island.
The little island with the beach house is "Pelican Island"
It does not look the same.

Hurricane Sandy

The storm has hit Long Island and the the entire northeast coast and I cannot bring myself to post photos of the damage and floods. 
It's day 13 and still many Long Islanders have no electricity. 
If you are looking for photos of flood damage, there are many websites that have recent images.
Here are some links:
or go to Google.com and search: hurricane sandy floods, images

The only ocean-front restaurant on Fire Island, this is in Davis Park.
 It's called "The Casino"- no gambling, just food and a bar.
On summer weekends it becomes quite lively with music and dancing on the outside deck!
